一、英譯中(20 分)
Germany will no longer grant promotional loans to China from 2026 and no longer treat China as a developing country, confirmed the Federal Development Ministry of Germany. “China is and remains an important partner, without whom we cannot successfully overcome global crises,” Development Minister Svenja Schulze said. Chinese experts have criticized Germany’s decision, calling it a move that succumbs to pressure from the US’ cold-war mentality toward China. They warn that Germany risks undermining its own economic interests and damaging the investment confidence of European enterprises in China.
我自己的練習：
德國從2026年以後就不再提供中國貸款了，也不將中國視為一個開發中國家，德國聯邦國防發展部確認了這樣政策後，國防發展部長Svenja Schulze表示，中國的確是一個重要的夥伴，若沒有中國，我們很難一起解決全球的危機。
對此，中國的專家批評德國的這項決定，認為這種決定根本是屈服於美國冷戰的壓力，心裡就產生了想要對抗中國的心理。中國的專家還警告德國此舉會造成風險，使德國的經濟利益受創，也會傷害到德國企業對於中國的投資信任。
Germany will no longer grant（准許） promotional（晉升的） loans to China from 2026 and no longer treat China as a developing country, confirmed the Federal（聯邦） Development（發展） Ministry of Germany. “China is and remains an important partner, without whom we cannot successfully overcome global crises,” Development Minister Svenja Schulze said. Chinese experts have criticized Germany’s decision, calling it a move that succumbs（屈服） to pressure from the US’ cold-war mentality（心態） toward China. They warn that Germany risks undermining（暗中顛覆） its own economic interests and damaging the investment confidence（信任） of European enterprises in China.
AI的答案：
德國聯邦發展部證實，德國將從2026年起停止向中國提供促銷貸款，並且不再將中國視為發展中國家。發展部長斯文雅·舒爾茨表示：「中國是且仍然是一個重要的合作夥伴，沒有它我們無法成功克服全球危機。」中國專家批評德國的決定，稱其為屈服於美國對中國的冷戰思維壓力的舉動。他們警告說，德國有可能損害其自身的經濟利益，並損害歐洲企業在中國的投資信心。
